Don’t waste any time on the report or the Guardian article; the tl;dr seems to be
- residential streets in London are diverse
- LTNs are on residential streets, so a diverse set of residents benefit from them, therefore
- There is no inequity of outcomes if an LTN is implemented
That. Is. It.
Myth busted.
- residential streets in London are diverse
I'm not doubting the benefit of LTNs. I think you have to consider where the traffic is going. Are we arguing this point?
I'm not seeing any data in that article, and I haven't had time to read the paper, but is there any "when you do this here, the traffic doesn't actually go along the main road which is where most people who have low income / poor health etc and so on live".
My point is not "LTNs are bad" my point is "traffic is bad".
